PR - Attack Chopper Al Basrah 2/20

[blackmain]

Really amazing round with my gunner Skrugs with Kevlar and Xeil(sorry if I misspelled) in the other Cobra. We were able to show amazing team cordination with no commander. Gettting Cobras to flags that need defending until infantry could arrive and finding and taking out spawn cars(worse then roaches imo) and providing close air support.

Skrugs was an amazing gunner and together we were able to get real close to the action and get only 3-4 TK's and i believe Kevlar's copper only had about the same amount of TK's. This is many due to the pilots telling their gunner where the enemies are and where there freindlies will be. Also the pilots need to keep the Cobras looking in a direction where the gunner is unlikely to have a friendly targets getting in his field of fire.

This lead to a very successful round even thought the insurgents where putting a pretty good AA defense. Most of the time we spent in the air we were locked on to and had to keep in constant motion. Many times we were sent back to base with the bolts falling off the chopper.

Yep, was nice indeed. Having both Cobras hovering the North VCP and unloading the guns under the gas station was awesome, looked like those Cobra movies you watch on YouTube!

Nice teamwork!!! Just wish I had played with your guys more, since I flew the A-10 for the most part on that round, but even tough, was worth it!

And again, I point to the fact that we had no commander!!! This is something that has been happening quite a bit. Maybe PR Team should work on making the commander more fun to play, to encourage people to do it!
